AvskumPunkista

More Swedish d-beat by Avskum. Lyrics are anti-racist, anti-war, anti-capitalist all shouted over Discharged punk. The songs have more depth and are catchier, and I like the vocals a bit more in this one than in Uproar Underifrån - the songs blend together less and are just overall better, as they tend to deviate from the formula in some subtle ways, to break up the monotony. Ingen Människa Är Illegal takes a Dischange / Meanwhile flavor; Losers Union is a mid-paced Motörcharged rocker; Girigbukar has a mid-career Anti-Cimex vibe; I Hate Your Fucking War Song has clean / acoustic intro like some Antisect shit. Maybe all cut from the same cloth, but different parts of it?

Recorded at the legendary Swedish studio Sunlight Studios (Entombed, Grave, Disfear, Wolfbrigade, At The Gates, etc etc). Might explain the depth and polish of the production, and the metallic crunch on the guitar tone.

Second press on Purple.
